Inspired me to get back into Game Design. Small ideas can still be wonderous and personal.
We’re getting close to Dawnfolk’s first anniversary on February 13th! 🎂 We’re 17 reviews away from reaching 500 reviews and the "Overwhelmingy Positive" rating on Steam. If you haven’t left a review yet, it would help so much (link in bio and 👇). Thank you! 🙏 #indiegame

Congratulations to all of the teams at @devgamm.bsky.social Lisbon 2025, but a special shout-out to Nest Games for winning our first ever Best System & Strategy Indie Game award with @crowded-game.bsky.social!
We had a tough time deciding but Crowded brought to mind other games we love in this space (like Against the Storm by @eremitegames.bsky.social/our friends at @hoodedhorse.bsky.social and Timberborn by @mechanistry.bsky.social).
